Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune says Hal Steinbrenner "told close friends he plans on hiring Lou Piniella as a consultant when his managerial contract with the Cubs runs out after the 2010 season."

Sounds like tampering to me.

 

Maybe we could sue them and get Joba.

I hate to break this, but Lou has always been a Yankee at heart, no matter where he manages. So I am not nor will I be surprise if Lou does become a consultant with the Yankees after his managerial days are over.

Honestly, I could care less. He's a good manager, but I have no reason to believe he'd have any value over replacement in a non managing role. The only thing I'd really like to see is Hendry get back into scouting instead of being a GM (assuming we get a better GM of course, and I don't think Hendry's bad).

As Cubs fans we can't imagine why anybody would want to be a Yankee, let alone live in that city.

I'm a Cubs fan who doesn't understand why some people can't understand why a person would want to be a Yankee or live in NYC.

 

Seriously, go to NYC and the odds of winning skyrocket, plus, you'll make more money than anywhere else. And to be a Yankee consult, you don't even have to live in NY if you don't want. Lou can stay in his hometown and be a high ranking Yankees official.

Doesn't he have a house in Tampa or something? Close to where the Yankees either have offices or spring training?

Yes, that is what I meant. He managed Tampa supposedly because he wanted to return home. Tampa is a huge Yankees haven.

Wow, somehow I read your whole post but didn't read the word "hometown." :oops:
